1 Utah Goldback - Beautifully Made Currency Containing 1/1000th Oz .9999 Fine Gold

The Goldback is the world’s first voluntary currency to be made of a spendable, beautiful, small denomination, physical gold.

When the Utah Legal Tender Act passed in 2011, the state became the first in recent times to recognize certain forms of gold as legal tender. Gold once again established a level of official recognition as money.

Since then the technology for minting physical gold into a spendable form for small transactions has developed. The makers use cutting edge vacuum deposition technology to layer each bill with .9999 fine gold in exacting quantities. Goldback bills carry a precise amount of pure gold between layers of polyester which makes them resilient and durable.

The Utah Goldback Series is the first Goldback Series to ever be produced. It was drawn by Cheri Jensen, a local Utah artist, who does beautiful, intricate work, despite being blind in one eye.

It tells a somewhat chronological story of Utah over the course of the series progression, highlighting specific pivotal moments in its history before the settlement of the Mormon Pioneers, through the settlement of the area and some historic moments pertaining thereto. The progression culminates in an idyllic future representation of reaching a type of transcendence toward which we are encouraged to aspire through the application of the virtues featured in the series.

These are each shown on one of the Goldback denominations as a backdrop for the Lady Virtue being portrayed and symbolized thereon. Please enjoy the Utah Goldback Series.

The Utah Goldback Series begins with the 1 Goldback Design, and it is filled with different symbols and cultural nods. The virtue Prudentiae, or Prudence, is featured here as a Native American woman, having many items and attributes traditionally attributed to coming from each of the five most prominent Native American tribes in Utah, namely: the Ute, Paiute, Goshute, Shoshone, and the Navajo.

Prudence is seated on a sandstone rock next to an ancient bristlecone pine tree (one of the longest lived trees in the world), nodding to the throne that Prudence is traditionally seated upon, an elevated status as a virtue from which many virtues claim their origin, and the wisdom learned through the ages.

She is gazing into a mirror held in one hand, symbolizing perspective, learning from experience and using hindsight. On her other wrist is a copper bracelet in the form of a snake, representing the struggle of trials as well as using wisdom to make choices. At her feet is a chipmunk, suggesting the preparations that they make each year ahead of winter as a symbol of prudence through preparedness.

The wolf is next to her, calling out to all who listen to use prudence, and how the use of gold is a keystone to an economy, just how the wolves of yellowstone are keystone predators, and the removal of either has shown a deterioration of their surroundings.

The footing: “Deal Prudently” can also be found in the bottom right corner of the artwork. Finally, in the background Bryce Canyon National Park’s Natural Bridge formation is shown with Canada geese flying in formation.

Goldbacks can be, and are, used for barter transactions with anyone who recognizes the value of gold.

Gold backed currency

By Nathan K. on June 10th, 2022

If you have seen the way the world is going and look back to the great depression. We are going through the same thing be smart and get silver and gold now before its to late. I have been researching about gold backed currency and its a great way to start buying gold plus if a shtf happens paper money will be useless. This is great way to bargain and trade with without have to melt down a bar or gold round coin

Amazing!

The one word title says it all!

Goldbacks, YEAH!

By David M. on April 18th, 2022

These are a great way to own gold. The artwork/designs are awesome. I have purchased several 1, 5, and 10 denominations and they are all great!

Better to have it and not need it...

By Dale A. on April 16th, 2022

Goldbacks are a great way to start stacking gold on a budget. Getting “some” gold is generally a good idea, though I suggest that silver (and possibly other PHYSICAL metals) also has a place in a well-diversified stack. They are intended to be a type of non-fiat currency that backs itself. It is pretty much inflation-proof, which these days (April of 2022) is on the minds of many, and it’s value is adjusted against the value of gold, not the perceived value of the US dollar or other fiat currency.
